tanha nahin hun gar dil-e-diwana sath hai
wo harzah-gard hun ki pari-khana sath hai

hangama ek pari ki sawari ka dekhna
kya dhum hai ki saikdon diwana sath hai

dil mein hain lakh tarah ke hile bhare hue
phir mashwara ko aaina o shana sath hai

roz-e-siyah mein sath koi de to jaaniye
jab tak farogh-e-shama hai parwana sath hai

deta nahin hai sath tahi-dast ka koi
jab tak ki mai hai shishe mein paimana sath hai

sikha hun mai-kade mein tariq-e-farotani
jab tak ki sar hai sajda-e-shukrana sath hai

jo be-basar hain dhundte phirte hain dur dur
aur har qadam pe jalwa-e-jaanana sath hai

kya khauf ho hamein zan-e-duniya ke makr ka
apni madad ko himmat-e-mardana sath hai

gham ki kitab se dil-e-sad-para kam nahin
jis bazm mein gae yahi afsana sath hai

manind-e-gard-baad hun khana-ba-dosh main
sahra mein hun magar mera kashana sath hai
